Exam AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate SAA-C03 topic 1 question 266 discussion

A. Configure an accelerator in AWS Global Accelerator. Add a listener for the port that the application listens on, and attach it to a Regional endpoint in each Region. Add the ALB as the endpoint. AWS Global Accelerator directs traffic to the optimal healthy endpoint based on health checks, it can also route traffic to the closest healthy endpoint based on geographic location of the client. By configuring an accelerator and attaching it to a Regional endpoint in each Region, and adding the ALB as the endpoint, the solution will redirect traffic to healthy endpoints, improving the user experience by reducing latency and ensuring that the application is running optimally. This solution will ensure that traffic is directed to the closest healthy endpoint and will help to improve the overall user experience.

Delivery gaming content --> AWS GLOBAL ACCELERATOR

Would have selected A just because B, C and D don't make any sense or have nothing to do with the requirements. But now learned that Global Accelerator checks health of resources BEHIND ALB/NLB, so it meets the requirements.

gaming platform -> Can't be CloudFront. Probably go for global accelerator

Is any answer relevant to the question?

B. While CloudFront can help with caching and content delivery, it does not provide the mechanism to monitor the health of the application or perform traffic redirection based on health checks. C. This configuration is suitable for static content delivery but does not address the health monitoring and traffic redirection requirements of the application. D. While this can enhance performance, it does not monitor the health of the application or redirect traffic based on health checks. Therefore, option A is the most suitable solution as it leverages AWS Global Accelerator to monitor application health, route traffic to healthy endpoints, and optimize the user experience while addressing latency concerns.

Agree with A

Global accelerators can be used for non http cases such as UDP, tcp , gaming , or voip

Correct answer is A

A: https://www.examtopics.com/discussions/amazon/view/46403-exam-aws-certified-solutions-architect-associate-saa-c02/

A. When you have an Application Load Balancer or Network Load Balancer that includes multiple target groups, Global Accelerator considers the load balancer endpoint to be healthy only if each target group behind the load balancer has at least one healthy target. If any single target group for the load balancer has only unhealthy targets, Global Accelerator considers the endpoint to be unhealthy. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/global-accelerator/latest/dg/about-endpoint-groups-health-check-options.html
